'Godspell'
inspires
'Godspell"
Original Motion Picture Sound­
track
Bell 1118
It appears that Christianity is
staging a comeback, that is. if
show business is your barome­
ter The signs are everywhere
"Jesus Christ Superstar" was a
long running, lucrative litur­
gical bonanza on Broadway
Leonard Bernstein's
Mass"
was an opera of Barnum aVid
Bailey proportions
Aretha
Franklin and her soul brothers
and sisters never had it so good
And on the non-show-biz side,
Jesus freaks are everywhere,
and Billy Graham is practically
a member of the Cabinet
The music and the lyrics
were
written
by
Stephen
Schv "tz. and the score is
simply beautiful T h e cast, head­
ed by Victor Garber in the role
of Christ (pictured on the al­
bum in a Superman shirt and
suspendered jeans) is young,
vibrant, with superb voices
The songs range from folk
ballads to honky tonk to the
Broadway production number
Each song is vividly imagina­
tive in its rendition of religious
texts
The best thing to come down
the center aisle is Godspell."
another religious Broadway
musical, which was made into a
movie with the original cast
Everyone I know who saw the
show, regardless of religion,
was delighted by it The movie,
to some critics, lacked the
verve of the play, but all agree
that the music was splendid I
have seen neither the play nor
the movie but the music is
definitely the thing In fact,
once you've heard this original
soundtrack recording, you will
certainly be a believer if not in
the Word, at least in the cosmic
quality of exciting and beau­
tiful music
The biggest surprise on the
album — and it works — is
"Turn Back O "Man " In the
first chorus. Joanne Jonas
sings a Mae West, sexy strip
tease, taking a few liberties
with St
Matthew's gospel:
"(Pardon me while I slip into
something comfortable) Earth
might be fair and all men glad
and wise A g e after age their
tragic empires rise T a da ta da
da " The song is accompanied
by a tinkly. tinny piano and a
^trumpet or two One can .only
* speculate about the bumps and
grinds that are implied in the
arrangement
The
second
chorus is sung by Jesus, backed
up quietly with harpsichord, its
simplicity offsetting the wick­
edness of the first
The variety of the arrange­
ments continues with " A l l For
the Best." done in vaudeville
style a soft shoe patter song
All Good Gifts" would be
thrilling if performed in a ca­
thedral—a lyrical, lovely melo­
dy backed up by bass, piano,
acoustic guitar and drum, with
a piccolo playing counterpoint
above the whole "Light of the
World" is slow, quiet, almost
wistful, with a dreamlike ar­
rangement of classical guitar
and shimmering cymbal.
" Godspell" is inspiring in its
joy. its musicianship, its energy
and its beauty It amply fulfills
the critical requirement that an
album must stand on its own
and is a must for the record
collector who loves good music
Music has always been an in­
tegral part of the theater of the
religious service
The
St
Matthew Passion"
Elijah '
"King David ' T h e Messiah"
and "Amahl and the .Might Visi­
tors" have always profoundly
stirred my faintly irreligious
heart
So it is with Godspell' It is
Christianity
updated
using
large portions of the Bible set to
the contemporary sound of folkrock music And this is rock at
its best — a driving beat tem­
pered
with
classical
in­
struments, such as harp harp­
sichord, organ and piccolo — an
adjunct to melody At times the
score thumps but it does not
pummel: it is occasionally loud
but not harsh it is exciting, but
not unnerving
